Boss, Your Wife Signed the Divorce Agreement Before the Wedding novel Chapter 829

Everything culminated into one definitive answer in this exact moment.

Since Sebastian had chosen to attend the wedding, there was no way he was going to let the Hudsons walk away with a happy ending. But no one had anticipated he would attack from this angle, entirely humiliating both prominent families at once.

Sebastian tilted his head slightly. "When it comes to underhanded tactics, I pale in comparison to the Hudsons. At least I am Lily's biological father; making arrangements for my own child is just human nature. But the Hudson family's actions today? I think you've genuinely shocked everyone in this room."

His tone was infuriatingly calm.

But the heavy sarcasm was impossible to miss.

He was openly calling out the Hudsons' severe lack of morals and boundaries.

Ian's handsome face had turned completely stony. "Mr. Croix, you've plotted this well. By placing Lily with the Yves family, you've severed any leverage the Croixs or the Hudsons could have over her."

Now.

The Yves family were legally her direct relatives, which was fundamentally different from the Hudsons' position.

The Hudsons had no blood ties to her; they could have tried pulling strings, but the Yves family possessed true, undeniable blood relations. Even if the Croix family attempted anything shady later, it would be utterly useless.

Sebastian had struck first.

He had manipulated the timeline to perfectly lock down the outcome.

"Raelynn doesn't want her returning to the Croix family, and I refuse to let my child be held hostage by the Hudsons. A compromise works perfectly, doesn't it? Mr. Hudson, your mistake was being far too greedy. Did you honestly believe you had enough of an emotional foundation with Raelynn that she would willingly marry you after your family sold out her daughter?"

Sebastian's tone remained frigid.

But it made Ian's gaze turn exceedingly somber.

He instinctively looked over at Raelynn.

Raelynn was finally recovering from her initial shock.

She never could have predicted that Sebastian had secretly teamed up with Julian to secure Lily's place within the Yves family. It wasn't that she hadn't considered it before, but without her divorce certificate—and with Matilda Croix intentionally blocking her from getting a replacement—she had no legal standing to claim custody. That was why she had felt backed into a corner, forced to marry Ian in the first place.

But Sebastian had everything he needed right in his hands.

Being the biological father with undeniable proof, combined with Julian's immense resources, opened doors she could never have accessed.

She truly hadn't seen this coming.
